until the death everything is life... and that does not risk it does not pass the sea babelfish.altavista.digital.com I'm guessing that this is an erroneous translation. Doesn't "no se" mean "I do not know"? perhaps "and he who does not risk it, does not pass the sea"

'hasta la muerte todo es vida' - literally, 'until death all is life' .. maybe better translated somewhere between 'life's a bitch, but consider the alternative' and 'ya only go around once, Sunshine, ya better make it good, the grave's the place to rest' ... very mexicano this saying, a friend of mine often mutters it, just before he does something fun but stupid -g- '... y quien no se arriesga no pasa la mar' - literally, 'he who does not risk himself does not cross the sea' [cruza often used in place of pasa] ... more loosely - 'faint heart ne'er won fair lady' or 'nothing ventured, nothing gained'. Trucks with this painted on their bumpers should be given a wide berth by pedestrians. Jorj is thinking of sé, 'i know' ... se is the reflexive My Dotcommie of yesterday seems to have changed direction - quote.yahoo.com - maybe they don't 'just go up'.
